Tebow staying home for NFL draft

<snip>

"After strongly considering the NFL's invitation to attend the draft in New York, Florida quarterback Tim Tebow decided Wednesday morning that he will watch the draft with his family at the Tebows' ranch outside of Jacksonville.

The NFL tried hard to persuade Tebow to attend, making it possible for his family to also be there with him. But Tebow has decided to stay home.

There are varying opinions where Tebow will go in the draft. Some say he could possibly be a late first-round pick on Thursday night. Others are convinced that he will have to wait until Friday night's second round to hear his named called."

4. No kidding, Gators don't risk a roadie with uncertain variables

Four exhibition games, Tebow will be able to relate to that

6. Yep.

Too bad, I was kinda hoping that he'd have the next Brady Quinn moment. The arrogent SOB deserves to be humbled IMO.

11. Well, to be fair Quinn sat there so long because teams were worried about the cost

of finding a helmet that could fit that giant bucket head of his
